Hi all,
Recently took the GMAT and got a 590, Q32 V40. I had taken a CAT rather non-seriously and received at 580 so that seemed around the mark. I did not do a lot of studying; or rather, I'm realizing, my studying was much too focused on trying to memorize/learn concepts (such as integer properties) rather than actually doing questions (I think I only did like 20 OG questions, though I worked a lot of the problems in the MGMAT Math books located at the end of the chapters).
I am aiming for 700+ for top B-schools this fall, now with a goal of applying round 2. This means I would love to retake in around two months. I'm obviously hoping for a solid score, but also hoping my application will be bolstered by my undergrad GPA and work experience (top 3 consulting firm + widely known industry consulting).
I'm weighing which options for a structured study to go with, and Math Revolution seemed like a good option. I realize most of my prep should be quant. I didn't study any verbal so I'm sure brushing up on concepts will help be gain a few points there, but I am less concerned with it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks~

Hello remicat ...... congratulations on your V-Score. I believe half of the battle is already done. All the courses are good. But...... to me the best Q material is our GMAT Club book/pdf. Along with the same doing the same topic OG will help immensely. And finally you can go through the Gmat Club tests.
If you don't mind could you please share some tips to increase ones 'active reading - reading at optimal speed enabling correct comprehension' skill . I am asking this question to you as to achieve V40..... one have to answer almost all the question in a test with having anytime pressure ( may be TP on last 2-4 Qs......... but not like the case ------ where 9-10 Q's required in last 5 mins).
Thanks in advance & all the very best again for your upcoming quest.

Hey remicat
Welcome to GMATClub!
All practice and no concepts or all concepts and no practice - both are not good ways of
working around the problem called GMAT Quant. You need the right mix of both to do
well in the the Quant section. Start by reading a topic from either the Manahattan guides
or our very own Quantitative Mega-Thread.
Follow this up with immediate practice. Whenever you practice questions, try to understand
if you are able to apply the learning to the problems. Every time you are not able to solve a
question go through the thread(where the question has been discussed) and go through the
various methods that have been used to solve the problems. In my experience, you will come
across a method that will help you save some time. Try and use this method whenever you are
solving similar questions during practice.
Once you are in the last leg of your prepararion, take the GMATClub Quant tests, which you
can either buy or redeem with our points. I would recommend you to do the tests once you
are comfortably touching Q45+ in the GMATPrep. Work on maintaining an error log and go
through the mistakes you make from time to time. This retrospection will definitely help you
improve your scores.
Last but not the least, these are some posts which I think help you with preparation for Quant
1. ALL YOU NEED FOR QUANT ! ! !
2. PS Directory by Topic and Difficulty
3. DS Directory by Topic and Difficulty
4. Q44 -> Q50
5. Timing strategies
The second and third links are for practice only.
Hope this helps you!
